Evolution of Video Games

When I was kid all we had was a Nintendo 64 and a Sega Playstation. I played games like Sonic the Hedgehog and Anamaniacs. Nowadays kids have X-box 360's, Nintendo Wii's, and Playstation 3's, not to mention games for the computer. The graphics have come a long way and many of the games now follow complex story lines. Most video game controlers are now wireless so you never have to worry about annoying cords getting in your way. I personally am a fan of Guitar Hero. I even have a cousin who is so good at games he gets sponsored to play in HALO video game tournaments. Talk about having a job you love!

Super Sweet 16

MTV has a show on called "My Super Sweet 16" where rich girls throw extravagant parties for their 16th birthdays. There was one girl, Lacey, who had an entire carnival AND a dance party. She also got two cars, a jet ski, and she had a performer. It makes me sick to think that some people are THAT rich. Spending half a million dollars on a birthday party is a little out of hand. There are people who are homeless and living on the street and yet these 16 year old girls are driving around in $100,000 vehicles. Most of the sweet sixteeners don't even appreciate anything that is given to them. All I can really say is shame on the parents for raising their children this way. They need a serious reality check.
